September 14, 2025,Elektrizitätswerk Mosbach – Zwerrenberg-Pavillon Runde von Mosbach (Baden)

Today we went hiking in Mosbach. We set off in ideal weather conditions. We started off straight ahead for a warm-up, then started uphill. A very beautiful hike through the forest. I can recommend it to everyone. Afterward, we walked a short distance through the pedestrian zone. A very nice little town. See you soon.

Mosbach is a nice town on the Elz river. Many half-timbered houses can be seen.

The tour up the Henschelberg requires a bit of stamina and definitely sturdy footwear.
The weather was kind to us, so we only had the umbrellas ☂️ with us as an accessory.
